I don’t even know if this is allowed here but frankly, I don’t care. I have seen conflicting guides on how to play cracked games. Some say to use lutris/wine, some say to use proton with steam and add the cracked games to steam though that carries a significant risk of a ban. So to all Linux pirates, how do you do this?

    Thanks, I didn’t know that Lutris used proton when necessary. I don’t need steam to run lutris’s versions of proton, right?

      You shouldn’t need Steam but protonup-qt can be used to manage lutris proton

        Sorry for asking too many questions but is lutris’s version of proton different from Steam’s proton? Like if a game has, say platinum rank, on protondb, should I expect that game to run on lutris with proton as well?
